Sweet Storybook Stocking Stuffer Free Printable

Unfortunately, I can’t help you get your gifts purchased, and I can’t help you get your family traditions and service projects checked off your list. Fortunately, I can help you with a fun stocking stuffer idea and maybe help you save a little cash!

When I was a kid, my favorite stocking stuffer was the Lifesavers Sweet Storybook. It came with 10 packs of lifesavers–the traditional 5 flavors (which included my favorite flavor–lime–the taste that is sadly missing from the modern lifesaver pack), Butter Rum, Pep-o-Mint, Wint-O-Green, Tropical Fruit and Cherry. My favorites were Butter Rum and Wint-o-Green, and I always tried to trade the Cherry, Pep-O-Mint and Tropical Fruit packs with my brother and sisters. Anyone else remember those story books?

When it came time to find stocking stuffers for my kids, I was sad to learn that Lifesaver Story Books cost $2.50 each, and they contain only six packs of candy with three different flavors. I was totally bummed.

I am a self-proclaimed cheap skate. $2.50 is more than I want to spend on a stocking stuffer–especially if it doesn’t live up to my childhood expectations. I decided to make my own, and I’m sharing it with you. (The best part is that you can fill it with any candy you want!)

Absolutely adorable! Beautiful graphics and wonderful presentation! I love the option of including our own choice of candy.
I remember the Life Savers books too. They were gifts from my grandparents – always at Christmas. The butter rum flavor was my favorite. Interesting, but I never bought them for my own daughters. I don’t remember if I didn’t see them or just never thought of buying them!
